MultiSite Mod & Sub-Folders vs Subdomains

[roylen1]

I have modified sites_switch.php in the multisite module addon to allow it to work woith either subdomain or sub folders.

usage
- for subdomains: name the site config file as shown in the posted directions ie subdomainname_config.php eg london.tickets.com_config.php
- for sub-folders: name the site config file domainname_subfoldername_config.php eg tickets_london_config.php

This patch will ignore the subdomain config file if a subfolder config file exists.

I'm new to this stuff so use at your own risk and as they say around here, backup 1st.

How do I get my get this subdomain or subfolder to work:

marchforbabies.morrisgiftshop.biz

here is a sample of the config file:

<?php
$template_dir = "2fast_shoes";
define('SITE_NAME','Shoes');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.2fastshoes.com');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://shoes.2fastonline.com');
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site
?>

How can I get going?

Install as per the original multisite instructions. once the install is completed replace the siteswitc and the sitelink files with the ones I changed above and rename the site config files as stated above

I am totally confused I have install everything

I have change this and see if I got this currect:

<?php
$template_dir = "example";
define('SITE_NAME','marchforbabies');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://marchforbabies.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://marchforbabies.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site
?>

if it is how do safe the file?

OK the mod here is to be used for subfolders only ie "morrisgiftshop.biz/marchforbabies"

If you are using subdomains "marchforbabies.morrisgiftshop.biz" do NOT use this mod.

I can do the subfolder

so I need to change this:

<?php
$template_dir = "example";
define('SITE_NAME','marchforbabies');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://marchforbabies.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://marchforbabies.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site

to this:

<?php
$template_dir = "example";
define('SITE_NAME','marchforbabies');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.morrisgiftshop.biz/marchforbabies');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.morrisgiftshop.biz/marchforbabies');
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site
?>

[roylen1]

<?php
$template_dir = "example";
define('SITE_NAME','marchforbabies');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site
?>

[wmorris]

<?php
$template_dir = "example";
define('SITE_NAME','marchforbabies');
define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.morrisgiftshop.biz');
define('CATEGORIES_ROOT','1'); //root categories is 1 for this site
?>

Is that what I need to put in and save file as morrisgiftshop.biz_marchforbabies_config.php?
